The Blue between us is a group presentation that explores the emotional and symbolic depth of the colour blue, across longing and loss, ancestry and identity, melancholy and resilience. Here, blue is both medium and metaphor, connecting artists through shared chromatic and conceptual terrain.

In Communal agonies and Restless apparitions, Sabrina Coleman-Pinheiro conjures spectral figures from thick strata of acrylic, their shroud-like bodies suspended in murky, atmospheric blues. Emerging and dissolving in equal measure, these ghostly silhouettes haunt the canvas like emotional residues and fragments. Fragments of thought, memory, and inner turmoil. The work forms part of the artist’s ongoing dialogue around mental health, where textured abstraction becomes a language for expressing psychological complexity. The figures appear communal yet alone, entangled in an unseen struggle, suspended in an unending state of becoming.

Alongside works by Ameh Egwuh, Ayobola Kekere-Ekun, Dr. Hassan Aliyu, and Tonia Nneji, Restless apparitions helps build a collective conversation around blue as both medium and metaphor. In this context, Coleman-Pinheiro’s painting becomes a meditative threshold. The figures, though abstracted, are both familiar and unfamiliar, intimate yet unreachable, like emotions we have yet to name. The blue between us is what holds us apart, and what binds us, too.
